    New member, I run a yard in Florida.

    Hello, I'm new to the forums here and wanted to introduce myself. I run a salvage yard in North Florida. We are a medium sized yard that gets a load of shred ready every day, and about 4 loads of steel together a week. We are a family owned and operated business that has been here for over 20 years.



    I look forward to giving advice in this forum as well as seeking it. I'm happy to find a group of people that do what I do!

    Welcome from Central NY

    Poke around the forums a little, there is someone in Florida that buys a lot of computers from scrap yards. He also used to be a yard owner, and I think he still does refrigerant recovery.
    Currently looking for a job in or related to scrap/recycling. Relocation is possible for the right offer.

    Welcome from the Dakota's. A scrap yards owner is a great addition to the site and I look forward to your perspective.
